After all, Cao Cao had already expressed his stance and would no longer hold the Han Emperor hostage and do such an overstepping thing.
Therefore, he immediately looked at Liu Che, the ancestor of the burly man.
This made Liu Che's impression of Boss Cao increase greatly.
Liu Che patted Cao Cao's shoulder and said,"
"Don't be afraid. Don't worry and do it boldly!”
"Tell my grandson that I said it!”
"Ye Chen will always be King Qi in Great Han!”
Cao Cao hurriedly nodded. I will definitely settle this matter!"
"Haha! Good, this is a good subject of my Great Han Dynasty!”
When Ye Chen saw this scene, he was extremely touched.
He really did not expect that these big shots of the various dynasties would actually value him so much.
One by one, they actually made him, a member of the opposite sex, king!
What kind of honor was this?
After the Zhou Dynasty, there hadn't been any kings with different surnames!
At this moment, the dishes were almost cooked.
Ying Zheng also began to call for everyone to quickly pick up their food.
Everyone hurriedly began to pick up their chopsticks.
With everyone giving Ye Chen the title of King Qi…
Immediately, they found Boss Cao very pleasing to the eye.
Only now did the five of them start to truly enjoy themselves.
Liu Che even added food for Cao Cao several times.
It was as if he was using this to show his kindness and intimidation.
Cao Cao was even more touched and drank a lot of wine.
"Ye Chen, what is this? It was soft and sticky, and after eating it, there was still a lingering fragrance in his mouth?”
"Our Great Tang doesn't have this.”
At this moment, it was Li Shiming, who was holding a potato chip that he had taken half a bite of and asked in puzzlement.
"Aiya, brother, why do you care what he is? Isn't it fine as long as it's delicious?"
Seeing Li Shiming asking a question, Ying Zheng waved his hand, seemingly unconcerned.
He was very open-minded and did not care about anything.
However, Li Er obviously didn't think so. Ying Zheng had a carefree personality, but Li Er was still a little bit interested in studying.
Ye Chen smiled and explained,
"This thing is called a potato. It was only introduced to China in the future. It's normal that you don't have it.”
" I see..." Li Er nodded.
"However, don't look down on these potatoes. They used to feed many people.”
"Oh?" This time, Liu Che and Ying Zheng were also interested.
"What do you mean?" they asked.
Ye Chen also picked up a potato chip and smiled as he ate.
"This thing can produce 3,000 to 5,000 catties per mu!”
"It can feed a very large population!”
Ye Chen knew.
Potato, corn, and sweet potato were introduced to China at about the same time.
Ever since these things entered China, the population of China began to increase!
During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the population of China was about 200 million.
However, during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, the population of China had already reached 430 million!
It had more than doubled!
This was not a simple doubling.
Instead, he had fed more than 200 million people…
These things were also the main reasons for the prosperity of the Kangxi Empire!
"What is it? 5,000 catties per mu?"
When Ye Chen said this, the four people present were stunned.
Ying Zheng, who had not cared about it at first, was so shocked that he dropped his chopsticks.
"Jordan, is what you said true?”
"Can this thing really produce 5,000 catties per mu?”
Ying Zheng asked with his eyes wide open.
Previously, he only thought that this thing was delicious.
He had never thought that the production of this thing would be so huge!
One had to know that during the Qin Dynasty, the yield of crops planted was at most 300 catties.
Han Tang was slightly better, but it was at most 400 catties!
But now, he suddenly found out that there was a crop that could produce 5,000 catties per mu!
Ying Zheng was completely stunned!
"If the soil is fertile and cultivated properly, its yield can reach five thousand catties!" Ye Chen nodded and said with certainty.”
"The slightly inferior fields are also 3,000 catties!”
Li Er put the remaining potato slices into his mouth. As he tasted the potato, he asked,
"Brother Ye Chen, can this…be used as a staple food?”
"Of course!" Ye Chen smiled.
"Stew, boil, roast, and fry! Anything! There are many tricks!"
"It can be eaten as a staple food!"
Seeing everyone's confused and thoughtful expressions, Ye Chen picked up a piece of sweet potato and said,"And this, this is a sweet potato. It can also be used as a staple food!”
"Moreover, it can also produce thousands of catties per mu!”
Ye Chen stuffed the boiled sweet potato into his mouth and picked up a piece of boiled corn.
"This thing is called corn!”
"This is considered a staple food now!”
"Furthermore, it is extremely suitable for planting!"
"Not only is it cold-resistant and drought-resistant, it can also grow well on barren land! Extremely adaptable to the soil!"
"It's also very nutritious!"
Ying Zheng hurriedly picked up the corn cob, took two bites, and said with shining eyes,"
"This thing is not bad! After eating it, my teeth will smell good!"
Ye Chen looked at Brother Zheng's gluttonous eyes and could not help but smile.
You haven't eaten popcorn before. That's what's delicious.
"Brother Ye Chen, this corn…How much per mu?”
Ye Chen rested his chin on his hand and thought for a moment.”
"Divine item!"
"This is a divine item!"
After hearing Ye Chen's explanation, Lee Er was dumbfounded.
He pointed at the pot full of ingredients.
"I truly didn't expect that something that could make our Great Tang prosper! It's in the pot in front of me!"
"If I can bring this pot back to the Great Tang!”
"Then why should I worry about the people of the Great Tang not having enough to eat?”
Li Er's words drew laughter from everyone.
It was definitely not possible to bring a pot.
But it was totally possible to bring seeds!
As long as he could bring the seed back and use the appropriate cultivation method!
There was also the government's large-scale implementation.
Why worry about not making the country strong?
Liu Che stared at the ingredients in the pot, and his eyes lit up!
He rubbed his thumb and said,
"If I had these things! He only needed one or two years! I can increase the strength of the Great Han Dynasty by several times!”
"At that time, I will be able to support hundreds of thousands of cavalry!”
"A mere Xiongnu can be destroyed with a flick of my finger!!!”
Liu Che's words were not without reason.
He was in Great Han now, and although he had the foundation left behind by the rule of Wen and Jing, he was still in the Great Han Dynasty.
However, they could not withstand the squandering of a large-scale cavalry.
Before he came, he had just sent Wei Qing, Li Guang, and the others to carry out their first military operation against the Xiongnu.
They attacked in four directions.
Unfortunately, he could only assign 10,000 cavalrymen to each of them…
Just this alone had nearly made the Imperial Court unable to make ends meet.
It couldn't be helped. The expenses of going north were too great!
But now, with what Ye Chen had just said, he could feed hundreds of thousands of cavalry!
Under the condition of ensuring that the people of the Great Han Dynasty were full.
The remaining rations could be used for military purposes!
To help him destroy the Xiongnu!
For the first time, Liu Che was full of confidence in exterminating the Xiongnu!
